A feature that could be neat to have is notifications on a per-forum basis. This means that a forum ID could be passed to the getNumAlerts() (and, similarly, getNumUnreadAlerts()) function and it would return the number of alerts contained within that forum. 

One possible use of this feature is to insert a div in the thead of a category or next to a listed forum's name  that shows the amount of notifications in that forum.

It could be a cool feature, but I feel it's more of a feature just because it's possible. I really can't see a practical case where I would feel the need myself to know how many alerts I have within a certain forum.

To me, I think, it would just make the whole expierence feel more integrated and native to both the software and the theme. It would really just add a sense of completeness, for me. I can just imagine any high quality theme having a mouse over function for forum/category titles that allows the user to quickly see how many alerts (total and unread) are in said forum.

I'll consider it, but it's really not a priority for the next beta o even the first release. Maybe I'll mention it in the development thread and see what the interest is.
